About This Book
For Kivrin, preparing an on-site study of one of the deadliest eras in
humanity's history was as simple as receiving inoculations against the diseases
of the fourteenth century and inventing an alibi for a woman traveling alone.
For her instructors in the twenty-first century, it meant painstaking
calculations and careful monitoring of the rendezvous location where Kivrin
would be received.
But a crisis strangely linking past and future strands Kivrin in a bygone age as
her fellows try desperately to rescue her. In a time of superstition and fear,
Kivrin -- barely of age herself -- finds she has become an unlikely angel of
hope during one of history's darkest hours.
Five years in the writing by one of science fiction's most honored authors,
Doomsday Book is a storytelling triumph. Connie Willis draws upon her
understanding of the universalities of human nature to explore the ageless
issues of evil, suffering and the indomitable will of the human spirit.
